It is true that we haven't thought about this in the media fragment 
spec. We only loosely describe in the "Notes to implementors" section 
that a user agent should display a media fragment in-context, for 
example by highlighting the fragments in the timeline of the video. I 
think it is a good idea to expose in the DOM API the end fragment in 
order to enable more customization of the UI.

What's the best channel to make such a request? File a new bug in the 
HTML5 bugzilla? Has this already been done?
